About Us
Marie “Rie” Meriwether Godsey and her husband, Eddie, started MG as a catering business in 1980. Then, in 1985, they realized that they could offer something the large dining services operators could not – the hands-on attention which elevates fine dining restaurants. So today, we’ve built a business around living up to that standard of personal attention and excellence, and our core values embody this.
Our Core Values
Our Core Values are not just a list of suggestions but a description of who we are. These values are our culture, defining our conduct everyday both professionally and personally.
Love Food, People, Serving Others
We recognize the opportunity to share our love of food with our neighbors is a gift, especially with our younger guests. Food has the power to foster curiosity, acceptance, and community across cultures – something we feel never goes out of style.
Make a Difference Every Day
We set the goal of making a positive impact on your community every day. Whether it’s going the extra mile to help a colleague excel, suggesting an operational improvement, or giving a friendly smile on a tough day we can all make a difference.
loving local
Local is core to every menu we create. We require something local at every meal, every day, no matter the time of year!
We do this because fostering great local sources brings:
- Better flavor and quality.
- Supports our communities.
- Reduces our carbon footprint.
